MUST DO cooking class in Matera

Exceptional! This is a MUST DO, top notch experience, for the REAL FOODIES, when in Matera. It is worth every penny! Dora met us at our hotel ushering us through the local market and sharing the rich history of Matera with our intimate group of 3. Our final destination was a beautiful chef’s table restaurant in the Sassi which was phenomenal.

Hi Toye, thank you for your nice review! It was a pleasure to accompany you to the market to discover our fresh local products and then go together to cook some typical dishes. I hope to see you again in my city...maybe for another food and wine experience! See you!!!
